Fabric and Chocolate!

What could be better!?  I received my swap package from Tara from the A Little Fabric, A Little Chocolate swap on Flickr!  There were so many wonderful goodies!

This was my entire package. There was fabric, chocolate, a hand crocheted pot holder, a box of notions like buttons, pins, and needles, an awesome Sublime Stitching pattern, and a few more goodies!



Included was this amazing hexagon pouch with the most adorable little space girl!



And these awesome little cards were so incredibly adorable!



All in all a fantastic swap experience!Can't wait to participate again next month!

I've Got a Crush for my Partner!

Well partner your Scrappy Hoops Swap will be in the mail tomorrow! I am so excited for you to get them and all the lil goodies I have included with them! Here's a sneaky peek! (Sorry for the lil paper on the right one - had to cover up the monogram!)

Inspiring Monday

Mug Rugs seem to be the new fad in the crafting world.  They are big enough for a mug and snack, and come in oh so cute designs!











Here's to having an inspired week!

Scrappy {Hoops} Swap is here!

One of the swaps I am participating in on Flickr is the Scrappy {Hoops} Swap where you create a scrappy embroidery hoop for your partner and cross your fingers that you stalked them well enough to know their preferences and they will like it!

I haven't quite finished my hoop for my partner, but it should be mailed off by the end of the week.  I did get my swap package from Suzanne though this past weekend and could not be happier with it!  I LOVE IT!  It was adorable both on the outside and inside.



My hoop was tied up with pretty ribbon and some matryoska doll fabric covered buttons which I adore.  I am thinking I will attach them to some hair ties for when I put my hair up in pig tails.



I also got some adorable Sublime Stitching Cowgirl embroidery patterns and floss.



But the best part though was this - 'Rainy Daze' - an embroidery based off an illustration that her brother did.  I adore it!



All in all it was a fantastic experience thus far and I am loving participating in these swaps and getting these amazing gifts! And I hope other are loving the packages I am sending just as much I am!

Quilt Festival Anyone??

So excited and so glad I live in Houston! No doubt I will have lots of goodies to show later so stay tuned!

**EDITED TO ADD** Holy cow did I get some amazing goodies including Tula Pink, MoMo, and Kaffe shot cottons!  But wow, what an exhausting yet awesome day!
